[visionlist] Post-doctoral position

[Niyazi Acar]

Please post:


The Eye and Nutrition Research Group from the National Institute for 
Research on Agronomy (INRA) and the Department of Ophthalmology (University 
Hospital, Dijon) announces the availability of one research position for a

post-doc in visual biochemistry

for a duration of 1 year (with a possible extension for a second year)

The main field of work of the Eye and Nutrition Research Group is the 
investigation of the role of dietary lipids in eye functioning (see 
http://www.dijon.inra.fr/flavic). The available position will focus on the 
relationships between ether-linked lipids (plasmalogens) and the molecular 
mechanisms of retinal light transduction and vascularization. The spectrum 
of activities will range from animals experiments, including 
electroretinography and retinal angiography, to cell culture, biochemistry, 
molecular biology and lipid analysis.

Preference will be given to a PhD with a background in biochemistry and/or 
molecular biology. Experience in the area of ophthalmology is desirable but 
not required. Evidence of previous scientific work (preferably by means of 
publications) should be provided.

Interested applicants should send a curriculum vitae (with copies of 
publications), and a personal statement of interest (describing how this 
position would be useful for applicant's carrier), and the date of 
availability to:
